    No problem at all & thanks for the effort.It's nice to see a forum contributor rather than a forum detractor.Good luck.

    The comp. was posted on Monday, 28 September 2009. I fear we are a year too late :) Not detracting, just pointing out to save people wasting their time :)
    Never put tables and chairs in the same room.
    If they congregate together for any length of time, they will inevitably hatch plots against you and your pets.

    That's not me then :)

    I see what you mean onethreehillgirl & it did make me wonder as I posted it .It is new on the competitions page so thought it might be a typo.Nothing ventured & all that.
    A similiar date format can be seen here,but an end date has been given.I left the above De'Lopnghi comp until last but after seeing this & took it as a typo.

    The full text says this:
    De’Longhi, leaders in premium coffee machines, are offering readers the chance to win a De’Longhi Icona Bar-Pump coffee machine.

    To enter, simply input your details below.

    Readers' Club* offer

    To enter the Delonghi masterclass competition please click here and answer the question. You will be asked to include your membership card number

    *Readers' Club members are subscribers to The Independent who have been on a full-rate package for a minimum of 10 weeks

    If you click on the link it provides, you get taken to a separate competition for a coffee masterclass which I presume is the readers' club offer that is quoted above. I think the competition for the coffee machine is for everyone.

    Also, the master class competition has a closing date of 13/10/10 and as it is linked to the coffee machine competition, I can only think that the 2009 part must be a typo.
    Most recent wins: IPad, Jamie Magazine yearbook, Links of London friendship bracelet, Baumatic ice cream machine! :j
